History
A humped-backed structure, comprising five arches, the central one being the most important. Parapets rest on arcatures carried by corbels. Between the arcs, the cutwaters in the form of a cutwater, downstream and upstream, are crowned by circular glacis. The entire construction is in rubble stone. The arcs, the top of the parapets, the bands and the corbels are in dressed stone. This construction is attributed to the Genoese.
